The National Addiction Memorial honors the loved ones we’ve lost.

Allison enjoyed life and being with her friends and family. Music was her heart and soul. She would be so mad that her life was cut short.

The first time Allison got out of treatment I took her to Epcot. We had the most amazing day. Everything was perfect. She was so happy to be sober and was humble and grateful for life. #AllisonsDad

Her laugh at a gathering. I could always hear her in a crowded room.

As a person that loves life and was a friend to others. So many people considered her their best friend.
I miss you so much, Alliecat.
#AllisonsDad

My sweet boy with a beautiful smile and kind giving heart who didn’t know his own potential.

I miss your beautiful smile and watching you immerse yourself into playing the guitar.

I’ll miss you coming up to me asking me what I’m doing because you want to hang out.

A sweet, loving, kind hearted, talented young man who was so much more than his addiction.

Our dad was a great person. He love to build trucks, go drive up on the mountains. Always had to BBQ. He was life of the party. But wish he could always be around for us but it was hard due to addiction. We loved him no matter what.

When me and my dad went up towards the mountains to ride go-karts in the snow. Or when we used to run as a family after school. Our parents used to race each other.

His deep conversations. His advice. I wish I had more time with him. To let him see my kids grow up. To see all I accomplished since he's been gone.

He said to never be like him. To always be better than him. So everything I do I always push myself to be the best.

Rach was my ride or die, my person, I had her young so we kinda grew up together, she was smart, funny, intense at times and a world class drama queen.

We were at the beach where we lived, she was about 7 months pregnant with her daughter. Sh was eating lunch while my grandson and I played in the water, when I looked over at her, I watched a sea gull dive bomb her and steal her chip right out of her hand, I never seen a pregnant woman jump up and run so fast.

Everything

She never mentioned that

You could feel his hugs all the way to your heart. His smile lit up a room, and his laughter was contagious. His love was unconditional and knew no boundaries. I'm lucky to have known him as his sister.

Raven had a light like no other. Her laugh was contagious, she was spunky and loved music. She was beautiful inside and out!

Her teasing her little brother with wrapping up Mac n cheese for his Xmas present and boy am I thankful I have that video!

Everything

She saved 5 people through organ donation

She had a kind soul loving heart sweet smile.

The day I adopted her she was 9 years old

Her calling me momma. And always calling me in my birthday no matter wer she was

That she loved her family

He was a beautiful soul who loved people and wanted to belong

How much he loved his family

His smile his laughter his jokes his beautiful eye

Strong fighting and never gave up

My last year of my life was so difficult as I struggled with a mental health condition. I was only trying to feel better. I didn’t know the cocaine I took was laced with fentanyl. I didn’t want to die, I was only 18 and had my whole life to live.

I miss Owen’s hugs. They were the absolute best!

The most beautiful, smart, fearless person in my life. She taught me unconditional love. She was a walking heart. She is my hero.

When she took a coconut into the pool to play with and they had to shut the pool down for the day. It was so innocent and she still found a way to get into trouble.

Her laughter, her voice, her love. Her courage and determination to be heard and loved.

As an inspiration to raise awareness.

Kind, loving, funny, best at baseball

Helping homeless, addicts, living his daughter and son

His smile, love and hugs

His thoughtfulness, kindness, treating people with love and respect

In my eyes, my son I miss so much. Anywhere I went I was always told how kind and always willing to help someone. He was a great kid, just made a bad choice on 8.10.20. He relapsed after 14 years. Leaving behind a wife and 3 great kids.

I have so many. But, I remember how he took care of my Dad when he was dieing ..... My son was also so compassionate to who ever needed help. He was there

I miss his calls he made to me daily. Whenever I needed him, he was here. I miss his hugs and I love yous.

I think he'd like to remember, being a great Dad to his 3 beautiful kids. How helpful and always ready to lend a helping hand.

My little brother had a heart of gold but a mind of his own. He did whatever he wanted with no regard to consequences. He truly was a unique soul.

Going to concerts together and sharing new music with each other.

I miss his random message” who’s your favorite slacker” and wondering what he got into now. I miss being there for him.

As a person who would do anything for anyone. He wasn’t always an addict. He tried to get help, he just lost the battle.

The friend with no judgements who never realized how much she helped others. Beautiful inside and out, but couldn't see what others saw. A protector who needed protection...

Alaina stood up for me and defended me in a place where I needed the emotional and physical safety to get clean and sober. Her bravery is why I celebrated 11 years clean.

Her humor and sassines. She was in the height of her struggles but would send me Bestie Memes and twisted funny videos, she had so little to give in some ways, but those moments of humor always so needed and appreciated by me. I understood and knew it was her gift to me.

Alaina would like to be remembered for her passion of horses and riding. Her love of music and others xoxo She loved Disney Princesses and believed herself to be Tinkerbell. That despite her struggles she loved her daughter ❤️ That she was truly sorry and that she tried so hard...

Kevin was such a smart, caring, kind hearted young man. He was a hard worker he’s always had two jobs and strived for greatness in everything he did. He loved his family and friends and his cat king. He loved to cook. He is missed very much.

I miss his goofy personality the most and I miss his advice and views on things.

Scott was the most terrific person you could meet. He always tried his best to make his people feel loved & cared for.

We went to Hawaii in 2023. It was the last trip he ever took & we had our son with us & had the best time

Everything. His sense of humor. His ability to calm me down when I was stressed out

He was a great man with compassion to make things right, but never got the chance to.

A father that always had a dream to had a relationship with their son.
